MILAN, March 16 (Reuters) - A fire damaged part of Ferrari's headquarters on Tuesday, burning several prototype cars being developed at the Maranello production site.
"We intervened at around 1 a.m. (0000 GMT)," said an official from the local fire brigade. "A hangar in the experimental section containing several car prototypes was burning. The fire is now under control."
A Ferrari spokesman said nobody had been injured and work in most of the affected building had already been transferred to a new factory.
He said the fire caused damage to some prototype cars and equipment.
The fire official said firefighters were still at Maranello which is near Ferrari's test track site at Fiorano.
